The recent IKF convention in Antwerp, Belgium has been declared a big success by senior IKF officials like Hordon L. Gortense. "We had a lot of issues resolved and a lot of compromises made." he said. Gortense was on the Kumquat Fungal Disease Prevention Committee. We asked analyst Carlene Aberswarthy on key accomplishment at the convention. "We saw a lot get done on regulating environmentally harmful fertilizers. There was also a decision made to make this convention occur more often. A special committee will meet in March to discuss how often the convention should be."

A recent report from national kumquat sources is that storage closets full of PaleGrapefruit Kumquats (Owned by Tobango) in Oahu, Hawaii were ransacked, vandalized and crates have reportedly been stolen. Tobango is yet to confirm this.

As the new year begins Ferkington Kumquats needs a resolution.

Ferkington's loss of profits surprises many however some like Hubit Shpeiper say "The situations over there just aren't handled properly."

Also Philipe Swensington's trial date originally set for Dec. 19 2010 was postponed due to harsh weather conditions. Swensington, Surpassa Fika's former Chairman of the Board was arrested by IKF agents in March for insider trading and false advertising.

In other news many experts say that at the IKF convention in Antwerp, Belgium in early December, many things were accomplished. One big thing was a vote against having a separate convention to rewrite the IKF rulebook. More next post.
